The subjects of contention in MWR’s Letters & Comments section leave me in a quandary. Having been a Mennonite Church member for 60 years, and on its payroll for 15, I treasure the love that emanates...

As I read MWR, I become frustrated by writers striving to justify sin as they follow the culture down the perilous pitch of pride. Where is repentance? Where is surrender? Are we more distraught about icebergs...

Thank you for your editorial, “Global Leader?” (July 3). You have called the bluff of those who imagine that the United States is No. 1 in ways that matter for the future of the planet. Now more than ever...

Unity has been given us by the Holy Spirit. It is a gift. We are commanded to keep the unity of the Spirit (Eph. 4:3). The vows we made in marriage did not say “until we disagree.” It is until death...

My family and I recently left the Mennonite church, not to get away from the name but to find a more biblically based theology. I thought we would always be Mennonite. We had no interest in getting away from...

In 1944, Harold S. Bender’s “Anabaptist Vision” was embraced by many as a breakthrough in defining our identity. However, in the last 50 years, that vision seems to have been abandoned. The vision today...

I am a Mennonite at heart, but as there is no Mennonite church in our town I have been a member of a Christian Reformed church for 29 years. When I read in MWR about comforters being sent to Mennonite Central...

We are writing to express our support for the resolution, “Seeking Peace in Israel-Palestine,” being considered July 6 at the Mennonite Church USA assembly in Orlando, Fla. We participated in April 2016 on...

Having been away for some weeks, I read through several issues of MWR at one sitting. You report on hard things, like Mennonites fleeing their homes in Congo and our internal conflicts, but hope and...

For several decades Mennonites have spent an enormous amount of energy and resources deciding the best way to organize. Has it brought us to a better end? My sense is we are more divided than ever. Is all this...

Thanks for the great article by Phyllis Lyndaker and Rosanna M. Moser on a comforter blitz in upstate New York, resulting in about 160 comforters for Mennonite Central Committee (“Joy of Giving Multiplies...

How tiresome to see that some still claim science doesn’t support the theory of evolution (Letters & Comments, May 22). There are millions of pieces of evidence for evolution in museums and libraries...

Should an American who travels to a Muslim country with the intention of selling them deadly weapons be allowed to return?
In Riyadh on May 20, President Trump rewarded his Saudi Arabian hosts with a $110...

Early in my teaching sabbatical in England in the mid-1980s, I walked with Alan Kreider (“Kreider Lit Anabaptist Fire in U.K.,” May 22) along a shady lane near the London Mennonite Centre. He and Eleanor...

Burton Yost (Letters & Comments, April 24) appears to suggest the biblical creation narrative is not supported by science and therefore we must validate its truth elsewhere. He also suggests evolutionary...

On May 4, the National Day of Prayer, the U.S. House of Representatives completed the first step toward passing the American Health Care Act. When members of Congress gathered at the White House to celebrate,...

After pastoring and church planting for 50 years and ministering in more than 70 Mennonite congregations as a consultant, I believe something is missing from our churches.
More than 2,000 Bible verses focus on...

In 1950, U.S. leaders decided it would be a good thing to shoot some people in Korea who were called Communists. For young men of Anabaptist heritage, it was time to decide: bear arms or be conscientious...
